Man writer: Describes the nipples of a 17 year old in detail

The literary world: If we don’t give this man a booker prize we will literally die

This reminds me that they literally cancelled the Nobel Prize for Literature this year because several men in the academy were accused of harassment and assault, and YET ppl want to talk abt how shitty books written by men are “””classics””” because they’re “””””highly acclaimed”””” when the ppl who laud this shit are just misogynists and harassers who see their behaviour reflected and validated in this stuff.

I knew they canceled the Nobel for Literature, but I had no idea why.

Read the whole story. It is… not entirely unexpected.

also in trans news that should be talked about. laverne cox has stated that on saturday her and a friend were assulted in a park and it’s not really getting the same attention as elliot. we can still be proud of him without ingnoring what happened to laverne and her friend.

if you claim ally ship to the trans community then you can’t ignore the bad things that happen to especially trans woc. and if you’re a white trans person you can’t just talk about other white trans people. it just shows that you only care about trans people if they are white and that shouldn’t be the case.

if your gonna talk about elliot please also talk about laverne. she deserves better and we should all do better to raise up the voices of black trans women.

Laverne Cox recounts transphobic attack in L.A.: 'Never fails to be shocking'
'When these things happen, it's not your fault,' actress Laverne Cox said after she and a friend were attacked while hiking through Griffith
Los Angeles Times
“This has happened to me before,” she said. “I’ve been trans my whole life. I’ve been harassed and bullied my whole life. None of this is new, but it’s still just kind of like, ‘Who cares?’ and then ‘Why do you need to be aggressive?’”
At first, Cox said she debated sharing her story on social media and wondered what she “could have done differently,” before realizing “it’s not my fault that this happened.” She also thanked her friend, who immediately recognized that Cox was the “target” of the attack and deescalated the situation.

And here’s the Instagram live she posted talking about the incident

As well as a follow up live she posted talking about it a bit more, thanking people for their support, and talking about some experiences she’s had as a Black trans woman in general
